DB2 and using RTF

We using DB2 and want to know whether using RTF on a field would use up additional character spaces within the DB. For e.g. A 100 char field contains text "This is an example" This text uses up 18 characters. Now if I make that text bold, italics, red, larger font would it still only use up 18 of the 100 characters?
Many thanks

First your asking a db2 question in the access forums, second your asking
about storing text in a formatted manner which DB2 wont do (you cant bold a
varchar) but you can store the data in the column as a varchar for CSS or
HTML or some other application specific understandable manner.
